My Old Lady left me a reminder.

That’s great. And holds much truth.

We recently added aluminum storefront door manufacturing to our portfolio which meant getting a cnc.
One of the new fabricators was playing around with the cnc during setup and made this for me.

Man ,that’s hep!
You can “engrave” points covers and such .

[Fatfatboy]

Great idea. He said he can download off the net, input it in the cnc and kit does its thing. Maybe I’ll get the time to learn how to use it.

Sounds easier than posting pix to this forum

[Fatfatboy]

That’s funny.

To be honest I still can post pictures with no problems from phone or c’puter.
I’m curious why your end is troubling for you.

These kids are hardcore.

Well most kids were in my day. The land around here was much more like your area 60-65 years ago. I am glad to see your boys out there carrying on so much good stuff .

The problem is the updated photo format.
Jpg is going the way of leaded gas.
So my camera phone has been upgraded with a newer format that supposedly is higher definition but takes less storage. Wasn’t my idea to upgrade it just happened when I gave in to constant reminder to do so.
This forum doesn’t support the new format .
I guess there is a way to change the camera setting and convert the existing jpg format
But it’s annoying

It's a good balance. The boys will spend some time on their phones, and then want to ride or go in the woods and play in the brook.
The trails were getting grown in but that's changing. Watching a kid get anger out on some brush and trees in the way of their riding is pretty cool.
Time to put ice screws in their tires.

Aauugh! I hate forced updates.
It’s my phone! Leave it alone!

[hacksaw]

Yep!
Oh it’s not forced ! It’s they drive you with crazy with constant reminders until in a weak moment one gives in
